Appl. No.:

09/858654

Inventors:

Edward J. Kaplan - Boca Raton FL
Diego Y. Fontayne - Montebello NY
Robert A. Joachim - Glen Rock NJ

Assignee:

Integrated Implant Systems, LLC - Arlington VA

International Classification:

A61N 3600

US Classification:

600 7

Abstract:

A medical instrument includes a distal frame portion that accepts a needle cam. The needle cam has helical slots for accepting a collar, whereby the collar rides up and down the needle cam, to thereby cause the needle cam to rotate. Spin movement of the needle is caused by movement of the collar, to thereby achieve a proper seed implantation during a medical procedure by having the needle spin between seed implant locations.

International Classification:

B43M 11/06

US Classification:

401263

Abstract:

A container adapted to contain and dispense a product. Said container comprises a hollow body, a filling opening, a dispensing opening, a valve and a flexible and resilient support means for said valve. Said flexible and resilient support means urges said valve against said dispensing opening, achieving a leak-tight engagement between said valve and said dispensing opening. Said flexible and resilient support means can be resiliently deformed by an external force acting on said valve whereby said leak-tight engagement between said valve and said dispensing opening is disengaged, allowing said contained product to be spread by said valve. Said flexible and resilient support means comprises a housing which fits the container and defines said dispensing opening at one extremity. Said housing comprising a resiliently deformable means urging said valve against said dispensing opening to achieve said leak-tight engagement.

International Classification:

A61M 1/06
B65D 33/14

Abstract:

A breast milk storage system which comprises a mandrel for selective engagement with a bottle connector of a breast pump. The storage system also includes at least one clamp in pivotal engagement with the mandrel, and a lock ring. The lock ring is positioned for rotation about the mandrel and the at least one clamp. Rotation of the lock ring effectuates pivoting of the at least one clamp between an open position and a closed position. In the closed position, the at least one clamp is pivoted with respect to the mandrel and presses against the mandrel so as to retain a storage bag in place by pinching said storage bag between the at least one clamp and the mandrel.

US Classification:

13762569, 29890127

Abstract:

An air/water valve assembly for use in an endoscope or other medical equipment is provided. The valve assembly includes a spool and a one-piece sealing member that includes a number of sealing rings. The spool can be injection molded, and the sealing member can be overmolded onto the spool. A spring, retainer, and housing are also included to form the valve assembly. As such, an air/water valve assembly may be made that can be used in a single medical procedure and then discarded in a cost-effective manner. Corresponding methods of manufacturing an air/water valve assembly are also provided.
